    Soda, when I first read your encounter with Glenn I could not believe it. It is just so cool that you three got to meet and talk with him in that way! I have to agree with everyone else and say I am of you all. Those are precious memories for you to treasure forever.

    Thank you so much for sharing that encounter with us so that we can all can see what a nice and generous guy Glenn really was and get to see him in a different light instead of the limelight that most fans see.

    I was thinking of you all and your visit with Glenn today as well. It was so wonderful to have that experience and I know you all know how lucky you were to have been able to meet him like that. Glenn Frey

    Soda, your Pebble Beach and Niagra Falls stories make my heart smile! And I think it is important that you archive them here so people can know Glenn better for the kind person that he was and how he appreciated real fans. I'm so glad that you got to spend that special time with him.

    It's hard to believe it's been 10 years. I got emotional today on the way to work, listening to the CD he gave us that night and remembering. I had to turn it off so I wouldn't be a mess when I taught my 8:00 class.

    I just want to say that I will always remember Glenn Frey as not just a talented man who changed the world with his music, but a man with a big heart whose kindness went far beyond anything he was given credit for.

    I shall not look upon his like again.
    Wonderful, wonderful account of an amazing evening. I cannot imagine what it was like to answer the phone and hear "this is Glenn Frey." Then all the rest of it. Wow. Thank you for sharing.

    Somehow I missed this when it was first posted. Wow is all I can say.

    The more I read about the man the more it's hard for me to believe he was as evil as some made him out to be or even as I originally had thought. It's easy to be blindsided by the bad stuff.

    How awesome you got to have that experience with Dreamer and PLS.

    Four years ago today I saw them for the last time on the History Tour in St. Louis. It was a fantastic show and little did I know it would be my last time to see Glenn.

    Wow, on one hand I'm so glad you were there Brooke, on the other, it is hard to look back realizing it would be the last time you'd see Glenn. Thanks for posting.

    That was such a fantastic tour. They went out on top.

    Do a search in the Glenn Frey forum. There are several Pebble Beach threads. 2006, 2007, and 2008 were the years of note (especially 2007).
